The travel broadcaster Anne Gregg has been axed by the BBC, for the second time in six years. The corporation said that the contract of the presenter of Radio 4's Breakaway programme had come to an end.

There were more than 1,000 complaints when she was forced into resigning from the BBC TV Holiday programme in 1991.

The corporation said that it had only received one complaint yesterday after a newspaper reported that her latest contract had ended.
